considering all this ai gen improvements, you should talk to them not just about browsers... scams that do imit ppl's voices are on the rise, you should also talk to them about being virgilent about some websites that do try to trick ppl, maybe even give some examples. The web is not safe and soon it'll be even less safe if there are photos of you/videos with your voice registered & available online
I have to explain on average once a month to family why some websites break on "the Apple internet app" (safari) and they should use Firefox or Chrome for critical stuff instead.
Had to explain again yesterday because Safari crashed to a white screen error on my wife's macbook while she was trying to buy plane tickets.
Very much. I am the 'tech person' whithin family and friends. I used to just do everything for them which was a chore. Since then I have discovered if I educate them on what a browser is, the choices they have, and how you can try multiple ones if you are having issues, then they very often start solving problems and looking further into things themselves.
People very often dont have a clue what things like app permissions are and just blindly accept them all. Aftrer educating and showing them, they are much more careful in checking what they are accepting.
Teach a person to fish is my motto, you should try it sometime!
I dont see why that opinion deserves downvotes but there you go.
Yes, the little time we have in our lives, I really want to spend talking with my parents about topics like browser choices.
